Hi! My name is Isabel Ramirez. I'm from Wesley Chapel, Florida. On behalf of Expert Village,
I'm here to show you how to set a dining room table. To the right of your soup spoon and
dinner knife, you want to place your coffee cup and saucer. You begin by placing your
saucer. Once you have done that, you want to place your coffee mug in the direct center
of your saucer with the coffee cup handle facing to the right. This will insure that
your guests are comfortable when picking up their coffee mug. Not everyone likes to place
their coffee mug and saucer on the table at the beginning of the meal, but this leaves
you with time just to bring the coffee to the table and not actually having to set out
your dishes in the middle of your meal. This is great for your formal affairs and not necessarily
for your everyday meals.
